SportsNation Chad Ford: I don't see it happening. Raptors don't really want Stojakovic's and Peterson's contract. It would cost them an extra $20 million in 2010. I don't think acquiring Julian Wright is worth it. If their contracts were a year shorter, I could see it. As for the Hornets ... why mess with a good thing?

SportsNation Chad Ford: I think they have to see whether they can pry Boozer or Elton Brand for Marion. I think both are possible and both are better long term fits than O'Neal. The one positive for O'Neal is that he's off the books in 2010. That gives the Heat LOTS of cap space in the summer of 2010. Of all the markets trying to clear cap ... Miami is one of the most desirable for NBA free agents. The fact that Wade and Michael Beasley are there won't hurt recruiting either.

SportsNation Chad Ford: Good luck with that. McGrady's injury problems will scare off just about everyone. Maybe a McGrady for Jermaine O'Neal swap could make some sense. JO has similar issues.

NO. I don't want Mcgrady.

**'trane** · 01-27-2009, 03:08 PM

i'm pretty sur ehe wants no part of toronto either.

Gurk · 01-27-2009, 03:10 PM

That's good then

jeffb · 01-27-2009, 03:12 PM

I just wish something would get done already.

Superjudge · 01-27-2009, 03:16 PM

MacGrady.

Love it.

He or Carter would be just awesomely fun

MangoKidHoops · 01-27-2009, 03:23 PM

If Carter were to come back, I would think he wouldn't shy away from it. McGrady on the other hand...that's a different story. He's a fantastic player - but he's always injured - real and faking..and knowing him and his affinity for the city of Toronto, he'd be on IR for the next year and half. If he were to come here and not bitch, play hard and all that good stuff, I'd make the deal in a second. But we all know that wouldn't happen.

Sorry Man, I'm just uber smart and I get bored easily, I'd enjoy the drama, and to be honest, thi sis entertainm,ent, I wanna se fireworks.

Carter being introduced would be awesome.

His first faked injury, media gold.

His first single handed destruction of a rival, in clutch time..... monumental.

Or we could just keep having the marquee attraction of watching Bosh dribble balls off his knee down the stretch, cuz that really keeps the fairweather fan excited.

Keep in mind, only the yahoo's here are so unbalenced that we care, the average fan doesn't give a fuck if they guy tried or not when he was here, fuck some of um might not even know he's gone.

UH huh.

Truth has been laid at your feet by your lord.

LX · 01-28-2009, 03:37 PM

MacGrady Love it.
